As seen on PBS's Mystery! Four stories from the haunting British series:
How do ordinary people react when confronted by extraordinary circumstances-when their mundane worlds are turned upside down by unforeseen events? How do they respond to danger, to evil, to loss? With standout performances from British acting greats like Ian McKellen (X-Men, The Lord of the Rings), John Shrapnel (Gladiator), and James Bolam (New Tricks, The Beiderbecke Affair), each eerie episode probes these haunting questions while you watch from the safe distance of your own armchair.
Dying Day: A lonely man's quest to save his life may cost him his sanity. Seen on Mystery!
The Limbo Connection: A wife vanishes without a trace, leaving her despairing husband to put together the pieces. Seen on Mystery!
Rachel in Danger: An innocent girl sets off to meet the father she never knew but falls into the hands of a terrorist.
The Victim: A wealthy industrialist embarks on a determined hunt for his kidnapped daughter.
